@ielenia@vi(v0180 (INTE (ST seems like even CBC doesn't make that distinction (despite canada's 3rd largest city being right next to the "wrong" washington ) (ST there's a headline calling the southeastern part of DC "southeast washington" )))
(v0180 (XSTM (ST it's funny how the orange juice vending machine at the skytrain station advertises "oranges from 36° N" ) (ST I suspect it used to say "US oranges" ) (CT and no I didn't know where 36°N is either, I had to look up a map )))
politics(v0180 (SPON (ST I'm pretty sure how I feel about student politics (confused and apathetic) is how most people feel about normal politics ) (QUERY seriously though, what the hell do they do when they only have 1-year terms and only stay in the university for 4 )))
@tay(v0180 (RESP 20 (ST 7/10 feels higher to me, 3.5/5 is "there's something wrong with it" territory while 7/10 is "meh, it's fine" 70% is "why are we using percentages" )))

kink, religion(v0180 (SPON (ST you know, a lot of kinks match up surprisingly well with uh... conservative christianity? I'm sure there are other examples religion-wise stuff like chastity, having an owner that watches over / cares about / knows everything aboutt / plans everything for you 24/7, weird restrictions, etc. ) (QUERY #:tone genuine It could just be my idea of religions being tainted by my kinks, but I wonder why that is ) (CT I have been to church weekly for a while but that was way before I had any capacity for reason / remembering things, so I don't think itt's religious trauma )))
(v0180 (XSTM (OP iceshrimp.net has very interesting priorities ) (ST I can bite people and see MFM just fine (with exceptions) but I can't see a list of my follows/followers* ) (ST I also can't edit posts* ) (CT *without using an external app )))
(v0180 (XSTM (ST so I'm physically in canada, connected to the internet through a canadian ISP, with a canadian IP address, google knows that I'm in canada, and if I google "thanksgiving" it gives me the canadian date ) (RQ but if I google "thanksgiving date" it gives me the american one? what the hell )))
(v0180 (EXTN (ST china doesn't have this problem because, even though it should be 4 time zones, it's just 1 time zone and the people out west have to deal with it )))
(v0180 (SPON (ST the thing they don't tell you about the canadian (train) is that you pretty much cross one time zone every day, so times get really weird and you get 23-hour or 25-hour days depending on which way you're going ) (ST the same applies for the long distance amtrak trains (even some russian ones), I assume )))
